The Design
- Outbound integrations
- Inbound messaging
Outbound integrations would extract the dispatch information from the JDE ERP, format a web service transaction, and then send the web service transaction to government endpoints. When receiving an inbound message from the electronic services, the program would produce either a success or an error message. This would indicate if the transaction was updated successfully or if there was an issue with the messaging flow.
MuleSoft’s platform was the main component to integrate JDE and government electronic services together. It created a pathway for data to flow seamlessly in-between the two separate programs, which resulted in fluent communication between the manufacturer and the Government, ultimately ensuring all the new regulations were complied to.
Results
Conclusions
to be used at another factory location, the integration processes can easily be re-used and adjusted per business or regulatory requirement.
